would gel coat, just that this would harden and the gelcoat would not.

Many thanks

Flow coat is not a material but a technique. You probably want topcoat
which is gelcoat with wax.

No, flowcoat is not a technique but a filled resin & it usually
contains wax so the outer (exposed to air) surface will fully cure. Most
smaller glass boats have the interior finished in "flowcoat".

Usually flowcoat is softer than gelcoat & certainly will not allow as
fine (glossy) finish as gelcoat.
